Staff Picks<\/a> hits the halfway point of July with a wide variety of sneaker stories. Multiple adidas Y-3<\/strong> silhouettes dominate the office in both high and low cuts, while unveiled Vans<\/strong> and ASICS<\/strong> collabs add some color to the lineup.

Pierce Simpson<\/h2>\n

Public School x Air Jordan I “PSNY\/NY23”<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve always admired Public School\u2019s aesthetic whenever it comes to garments, but to see their take on the classic Air Jordan I silhouette is very appealing to me. With the incorporation of luxurious materials, it’s interesting to witness Jordan brand venture towards the higher-end footwear market. Many times collaborations can miss their mark, but the work of these two reputable brands definitely provided their friends and family with a great product. Hopefully next year I can score myself a pair of the \u201cNY23\u201d that should be available to the public.”
\n<\/p>\n

Sid Ashford<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Max Lunar90 \u201cMoon Landing\u201d<\/p>\n

“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jordan Howenstine<\/h2>\n

Nike Zoom Flight Uptempo V Black\/Gold<\/p>\n

“Jason Kidd x Oakland University Golden Grizzlies = All me.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nolan Nevels<\/h2>\n

Bodega x ASICS Gel Lyte V<\/p>\n

“It’s Gortex. Do you know about Gortex?”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cameron White<\/h2>\n

adidas Y-3 Yohji Boost Black\/White<\/p>\n

“The adidas Y-3 Yohji Boost Black\/White earned the title of my staff pick this week because they are a prime example of where exceptional design intersects phenomenal comfort.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ian Stonebrook<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Foamposite One \u201cGold Cleats\u201d Custom<\/p>\n

“The “Dark Neon Royal” Nike Air Foamposite One will forever be my favorite shoe. Playing in them at Kick Roll reconfirmed that, even though recent releases of silo in colorways that looked ‘sweaty’ (copyright: Brett Pickert) had turned me off on the model. Over the last few years, I’ve always really liked what Sole Swap has done with the shoe, more so than retail releases. “Atlantic Blue” and “Mambacurial” makeups are more inline with what I’d want to wear\/buy, and these Neymar Jr. joints are just as sharp.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Peter Sim<\/h2>\n

Quartersnacks x Nike SB Dunk Low<\/p>\n

“The Quartersnacks x Nike SB Dunk Low is a really solid using the classic black upper, white midsole and gum outsole combo with a great mix of materials.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mike Parsley<\/h2>\n

adidas y-3 Hayex High “Blue”<\/p>\n

“I’ve always been a fan of Yohji’s designs, more particularly his high-top sneakers. These look very similar to the Y-3 Held model sans mid-foot strap, which is cool because the mid-foot strap may look dope, but it makes the shoe a bit harder to rock.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kin Kwan<\/h2>\n

New Balance 574 \u201cNeon\u201d<\/p>\n

“I like the ’80s sci-fi inspired design, from the bold contrasting colors to the New Balance font. This looks like something straight out of Tron<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Michael Faucheux<\/h2>\n

adidas ZX Flux Weave Black\/Running White<\/p>\n

“My pick this week is the ZX Flux Weave. Every style code of the ZX Flux, to me, has been a knock out of the park, and it will only get better once the miAdidas app launches.”
\n<\/p>\n

Brittany Shelton<\/h2>\n

Footpatrol x Nike Air Huarache Light “Concrete”<\/p>\n

“These “Concrete” Air Huarache Lights by Footpatrol sold out fast, and for good reason. It’s hard to go wrong with a versatile colorway like the one found on this kick.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jasmine Majors<\/h2>\n

Odd Future x Vans Syndicate Old Skool Pro \u201cS\u201d Pack<\/p>\n
